Carefully following the directions I found on this site I jump started my 04 SSR.

It started right up, however now I have ABS and Airbag lights on the dash...along with low batter indicator AND
Top, windows, door locks, are not functioning.

I also realize my manuals are in the bed saddlebag...

Any suggestions on where to start looking for fuse or relays would be appreciated. Hoping I haven't toasted the RDM...

Thank you in advance.

You have blown the 125 amp fuse, in the Under Hood Fuse Box - a common jump start issue.
‘Also check the radio, after replacing the 125 amp fuse, if the radio lights up but you have no sound check the 25 amp amplifier fuse in the rear fuse box.
Can you advise which is the 125 amp fuse...Is it the black one which is different from all of the rest? Thanks!!

I would suggest to try power seats and rear defrost to see if they work.
They are both higher current items that are fed from 125amp fuse.

If they work properly, I don't think 125amp fuse is suspect.
Additionally where did you connect your jumper cables?

Thank you everyone who responded to help. Did a charge on the battery and fired up right away and everything seems to have reset and be functioning properly. Will put a trickle charger on it. I did have battery checked and it is OK...just been sitting too long I guess. Again, Thanks to all.

Remember, Max . . .

Battery Tender vs Battery Trickle Charger . . . HUGE DIFFERENCE !

Well done! (y) Be sure you're putting it on a battery tender/maintainer to keep the battery in top shape. Although they are sometimes referred to as a "trickle charger", they are not the same thing and an actual trickle charger can do damage since they never stop charging. More here:
